Fendi’s Baguette became emblematic of the compact shoulder bag: a short strap and horizontal body designed to sit close to the wearer. The Peekaboo, introduced later, is a more structured top-handle with a divided interior and a deliberately visible glimpse inside.
Both designs have been revisited in different materials, sizes and embellishments. A pre-owned listing should identify the version and season where possible; “Baguette” or “Peekaboo” alone leaves substantial variation in construction and condition.

Researching an individual bag
Use a model-specific reference whenever possible. A recognizable logo, clasp or material pattern can help identify the design, but does not authenticate an individual bag. Production details, sizing and available services can change across years and markets.
For current specifications, check the house’s own product details. For historical context, read museum records alongside the house account. For a pre-owned purchase, assess the exact item’s construction, condition, provenance and return terms separately.
References & further reading
Brand pages document the house’s own descriptions; independent museum records add historical context. Neither is a substitute for item-specific provenance or a professional assessment.
